Our office continues to be open to all new and existing patients. We use hospital-grade sanitizers and are taking measures to ensure patients maintain social distancing by not having anyone wait in our reception room with others. If you prefer to wait in your car, just give us a call and we will call or text you when we are ready to bring you straight into a treatment room. Our entire staff is wearing masks and we encourage you to do the same.

For those patients who cannot or still wish not to visit the office, we are offering private video telemedicine visits. Simply call the office at 713-785-7881 and ask for an e-visit and we will be happy to get you set up for an immediate appointment. You can also request an appointment through our website.

Looking for the perfect, quirky gift for a parent, teacher or even grandparent? Check out this fun idea from About.Com for a home-made t-shirt decoration that will capture the current imprint of your children’s quickly-growing feet.

Walk All Over Me Tee

Supplies

White T-Shirt

Cardboard

Fabric Paint

Paint Brush

Shallow Containers, like Styrofoam Plates

Directions

1. Start out by laying the t-shirt out on a flat surface. You will want it on the ground or on a low surface because you will be stepping on the shirt. Cover the area around your t-shirt with newspaper or something else that will protect it from paint covered feet. Place a piece of cardboard inside the shirt so the paint doesn't leak through to the other side. You might want to keep a large container with warm, soapy water and towels near where you are making this t-shirt.

2. Squeeze some fabric paint onto the styrofoam plate or shallow dish and spread it around so a thin layer covers the entire plate. Simply step onto the paint, making sure it covers the entire bottom of the foot.

3. Carefully step onto the t-shirt. In the t-shirt pictured here, each of the children used a different color of paint. Let the paint dry completely before you move the shirt.

4. Once the footprints are dry, use a black fabric paint and write "My Kids Walk All Over Me", or change the wording a bit for teachers, close friends, grandparents etc. You can also do the back of the shirt once the front dries.

Walking in paint is always a good time, but your children’s feet may need more attention than that—especially if they are experiencing any kind of foot pain. At the first sign of discomfort when they walk, run or play, schedule an appointment with Dr. Andrew Schneider.
